THE first Irish Eurovision Song Contest finalist since 2018 has criticised organisers of the competition for asking them to alter a pro-Palestinian message.
They said: “It was very important for me because I’m pro-justice and pro-peace. Unfortunately, I had to change those messages today to ‘crown the witch’ order from the EBU.” He had previously appeared to hit out at the restrictions, questioning if freedom is"controversial" and why people keep asking if it is"political".Some fans have been calling for a ban on Israel amid the ongoing bombardment of Gaza, saying that to exclude Israel would have been a “political decision”.
